I went to check the final results, and they are still different from when they called us back down...
Don't look unless you want to.

I forgot to tell you about that night.

Monday night.
I stood in my room, wondering if I should. I had already talked to you earlier that day, so it wasn't as if I was completely cut off from communication that day. But suddenly, I felt the urge, a few minutes after 10:10pm, to call you and say, "I am really happy because I love you!" I was actually going to do it, maybe.
I went to get some water. My parents' door was open on that side of the house.
Walk back.

Turns out Jack called me to tell me his mom couldn't give us a ride home the next day.
Aw man, I don't want to end my night with a call from the brother.
So I stood there for a while longer. If I did it I'd have to whisper really quietly.
Finally, I turned off the light and went to sleep.

I decided to look back at last year's January posts. It was slightly awful. But, some of the happy little memories sparked my mind, and I'm glad to have read them again.

I sort of miss the rain. And walking through the rain. And thinking through the rain. And looking through the rain. And smiling and laughing through the rain. That's the best one. Maybe.
